Acropolis Museum

Introduction: It is located at the southeastern corner of the Acropolis and was completed in 1878. In order to ensure the museum does not exceed the height of the ancient buildings on the Acropolis hill, it was built by excavating into the earth. With the exception of bronze artifacts and Greek vases, which are housed in the National Museum, all artifacts unearthed from the temples on the Acropolis since 1834 are preserved here.

The majority of these are stone sculptures. This museum provides valuable material for the study and development of ancient Greek sculptural art.
